Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

This is happening, right now. The great "arribada" (arrival) of mother Olive Ridley sea turtles on the Odisha coast, where they dig sand-nests & lay their eggs, driven by ancient instinct. Heart-lifting, magnificent, moving: part of a geography of hope. 🎞️ by Bivash Pandav via my friend Yuvan Aves.

I would like to see a few British broadcasters read out every word of Trump’s latest ‘statement’ live on air & then remind us of their often lavish statements of support for him & then share some of their supportive words for Ukraine. And then we can all watch their brains explode…

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Good morning Bluesky ☀️🦋 from the Gulf of Mexico 🌊

The government should draw up plans for Tesla tariffs to hit Musk where it hurts, if Trump follows through with his threats to the UK steel industry. Trump and Musk can't be allowed to bully the UK while the Conservatives and Nigel Farage cheer them on from the sidelines.

What a struggle, trying to stop monopolistic corporate greed impacting on the rest of us.

A new low from Labour, aping Reform to further demonise migrants. Give asylum seekers the right to work to end exploitation. Create safe routes to stop criminal gangs. It’s not difficult! 🤯 www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

I don't think this beats 'Brick in the bollocks man', but it's endlessly watchable.

Sir Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves are being “simplistic and divisive” by pitting economic growth against protecting the natural world, the head of the RSPB has warned ⬇️

The worst people in the world.

The UK mustn’t let Donald Trump bully us or our ally Canada. We need to work with our allies in Europe and around the world to stand up to him. The Prime Minister should invite Commonwealth leaders to London to discuss a joint response to Trump’s global trade war.

UK govt targets old, sick, disabled. Long-term sick need to find jobs. Face benefit cuts of £5k a year. This after two child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut. 6.3m await hospital appointment, 2.8m chronically ill Govt won't tax wealth; increase capital gains, corporate tax archive.ph/zDPGT

We knew what the Torys were, We're 7 months in , now finding out what Labour are, the mask has slipped.

He always finds the words. Seriously Labour get your fucking act together! I want the greed stopped, NOW!

Greta Thunberg is right.

Total greed , but hey let's blame Labour.

Absolutely @the-tuc.bsky.social Work should enable us to flourish and grow, not just survive

Afternoon, Bluesky!

Stop hate.

“The refusal by the British press and politicians to touch revelations of serious criminality at The Sun tells us everything we need to know about how power really works in the UK” A superb article from @adambienkov.bsky.social www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/a-total-ec...

So Labour can find the money to 'relax' their changes to the non-dom tax regime but they can't find the money to restore the winter fuel allowance or lift children out of poverty by scrapping the two-child benefit cap 🤔 Whose side are they on?

Nigel Farage, Liz Truss and Suella Braverman went to the USA for Trump's inauguration, he didn't see them, he didn't let them in. They just wandered around Washington wearing his stupid hats like the bootlicking economy crashing morons they are.

Spot on.

Labour continues to pledge to cut the disability benefits bill, despite a High Court ruling which found that the previous government's consultation into the plans was unlawful. In light of these findings how can we possibly allow that to happen? www.bigissue.com/news/social-...

#Labour just getting worse by each passing day. One rule for the rich.... www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

🔴Trump, Musk and the Global Far-Right Circus Threatening to Drag in the UK Just because the US is sinking into the abyss, doesn't mean the rest of us have to go down with the ship, argues @bearlypolitics.co.uk www.bylinesupplement.com/p/trump-musk...

“It is alarming that the government is happy to negotiate with China but won’t even look at a better trading arrangement with our closest neighbours in Europe. This is an act of economic negligence” Ed Davey www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/econom...

‘A Simple Ban on Political Lying Could Radically Transform Our Politics’ Just one small step would trigger a whole series of positive changes to democratic life in the UK, argues Neal Lawson bylinetimes.com/2025/01/22/a...

Denmark telling Mr Trump to fuck off. If this is a message you endorse, spread it.

We know what a bad Trump trade deal would mean... Worse food, lower animal welfare and more pain for British farmers – just like the bad deals the Conservatives struck. We can't let that happen.

Absolutely true.

A brave soul speaking truth to power.
